When Faith Feels Tired: 3 Steps to Start Again Without Pretending

If you’re tired of being strong all the time and feel yourself slipping into Christian burnout and spiritual exhaustion, this video is a long letter written for you. 🕯️ Maybe you still love God, still serve, still show up… but on the inside you feel like an emotionally exhausted Christian who doesn’t know how much longer you can carry everything.

In this honest conversation, we name what you’re going through: burnout in faith, quiet soul exhaustion, the pressure of being “the strong one” for everyone else. We’ll talk about what happens when your faith feels tired, when you look fine on the outside but feel empty and anxious on the inside, and why this isn’t drama, laziness, or a lack of faith. 💔

We open the Bible together in a gentle way, looking at passages like Matthew chapter eleven, verse twenty eight, Isaiah chapter forty, verses twenty nine to thirty one, and Second Corinthians chapter twelve, verse nine. Instead of religious clichés, you’ll hear how Jesus speaks directly to the tired, the overloaded, and the ones who have no strength left. This is Christian mental health through a biblical lens: no denial of pain, no spiritual performance, just grace meeting you where you really are. 📖

Along the way, we walk through three simple but deep steps: a brutally honest prayer where you stop pretending to be strong with God, a concrete step of vulnerability with someone safe (a friend, leader, or Christian therapist), and small daily agreements of rest that say to your soul, “I am not a machine.” These are not quick fixes or magic formulas, but gentle, practical ways to start healing when you feel burned out in faith. 🌱

If you feel broken but still believing, this letter is an invitation to lay down the armor for a moment and let yourself be loved without having to hold everything together. You don’t have to walk through Christian burnout alone. Stay close, breathe, and let this conversation remind you: it is not your strength that holds God up; it is God who holds you up, even when your strength is gone. 🤍
